Advent Lutheran Church - ELCA

I love my church

Advent is my home of homes. I backslid for years as a Christian. When we first went to Advent that was in early 2000s we became members under pastor Bob. A major transition was happening with church. They were looking for new pastor etc. We both had to work different shifts and just wasn’t whole heartily into going. Then all these years later we decided to go back and give it a shot. Glad we did, I love each and every single person there. We have been there a couple of years. I now am the church drummer. I hadn’t played music in over 15 years. Somehow God worked his magic through me and I am a glorified percussionist. My children have had the most impact. The trips, social gatherings, bible homework, learning how to give back to community, being a part of Murfreesboro Loves, feeding homeless. They are learning how to love people and give to people. No matter what your race, gender, sexual preference may be. We support other churches in Murfreesboro Loves as well as local Buisnesses. The congregation of people are all walks of life, no judgment zone, that’s what we love. There 2 services the contemporary is live music and is our first service. The next 10:45 service is traditional with a choir and organ. Our pastor Micheal Jannet is the most down to earth, big hearted, pastor I’ve ever had. He makes sense of the Bible. He quizzes us in sermons sometimes. He cries or chokes up on words when there has been tragedy or just ungodly acts. He has his door open always and I love that about him. Our family loves this church and I think if u believe god has a purpose for u no matter what u are or look like then this is the place for you! God bless
